Statement

A Protest Shift - for Soo VAC's Sashion Flow, 2006
60’s style sheath or shift dress takes shape in ordinary quilter’s cotton, commercially printed with a Roman Ruins theme, surface-designed with digital images of Oct. 2006 mass protest rally in D.C. in front of White House. "Not in our name" and "6 years later - are you safer?" A response to an illegal invasion and occupation in Iraq, printed, sewn and quilted, haughtily worn by 5 models with handmade redheeled shoes further representing empire. The dress was designed to demand a drastic political shift in Soo Vac's anti-fashion show.
